SED members joined PTs around the world for Global PT Day of Service by volunteering at the Houston Food Bank carousel and had a blast doing it! Attendees were encouraged to wear PT-themed T-shirts, and the best of the day was, “I’m not checking you out, I’m analyzing your gait.” Serving others is at the heart of what we do - both in the clinic and in our community.
